But we're pretty far apart when it comes to the solution. I sometimes wonder if the gun control crowd is serious, or if they were j...</description> <author>politics@skurfer.com (Rob McBroom)</author> </item> <item> <title>The Worst</title> <link>http://www.skurfer.com/politics/events/the_worst</link> <guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.skurfer.com/politics/events/the_worst</guid> <pubDate>Wed, 12 Dec 2012 00:00:00 -0500</pubDate> <description>I've run across a couple of posts lately describing different philosophies of how to choose the things you buy: [The Best][best] by Dustin Curtis, and [The Worst][worst] by Moxie Marlinspike. I want to talk about the latter. In summary, you'll have greate...</description> <author>politics@skurfer.com (Rob McBroom)</author> </item> <item> <title>Response to Jason Alexander</title> <link>http://www.skurfer.com/politics/events/jason_alexander</link> <guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.skurfer.com/politics/events/jason_alexander</guid> <pubDate>Thu, 23 Aug 2012 00:00:00 -0400</pubDate> <description>Jason Alexander posted a 9800 character "[tweet](http://www.twitlonger.com/show/if2nht)" on gun ownership that I just ran across.

This was especially apparent during the [debt "ceiling" debate][squealing] back in July. The general meme being "those Tea Party jerks won't compromise". I get it. Be nice.

I'm glad we're at least talking about things like this. It was unthinkable even in the last election.

Since its creation in 1917, it's prevented additional borrowing exactly *0 times*. When we get close, we increase it. In practice, there is no ceiling. What I find depressing is that the so-called Rep...</description> <author>politics@skurfer.com (Rob McBroom)</author> </item> <item> <title>The Paradox of Choice</title> <link>http://www.skurfer.com/politics/events/the_paradox_of_choice</link> <guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.skurfer.com/politics/events/the_paradox_of_choice</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 18 Jun 2010 00:00:00 -0400</pubDate> <description>Have you seen this? ...</description> <author>politics@skurfer.com (Rob McBroom)</author> </item> <item> <title>Why are you hitting yourself?</title> <link>http://www.skurfer.com/politics/events/why_are_you_hitting_yourself</link> <guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.skurfer.com/politics/events/why_are_you_hitting_yourself</guid> <pubDate>Wed, 16 Jun 2010 00:00:00 -0400</pubDate> <description>An excerpt from [an article on the Tea Party movement](http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cifamerica/2010/jun/14/tea-party-has-lot-teach-left): > It would be wrong to characterise the Tea Party movement as being mostly working class.
